“Earlier, you owe me a pseudo-Divine artifact. Then, you attacked me. Ha ha ha! I am not an insatiable person. Two pseudo-Divine artifacts and I can spare your life,” Chen Feng said.

“That's impossible.” Xue Luosha rejected the terms.

“If so, you can just die. By killing you, everything you have will be mine,” Chen Feng said, waving his hand. Xue Luosha's battle lance then disappeared, replaced with a sword.

“I still have some final life-saving cards. Things will not end well for you if you force me to a dead end!” Xue Luosha's face turned pale and blood energy seeped out from every part of her body.

“You can give it a shot.” Chen Feng's eyes flashed with light. Next, Xue Luosha saw darkness flas.h.i.+ng out before her. She knew that the situation did not bode well for her, but before she could even dodge, she sensed sword energy bearing down upon her.

“Break!” 

Xue Luosha shouted and the True laws within her body circulated, her strength emerging to break the darkness before her. 

The darkness disappeared to reveal Chen Feng standing before Xue Luosha, a sword in hand. Although Xue Luosha had the protection of her armour, Chen Feng's attacks had still left several sword wounds on her and blood kept flowing out from her wounds.

“Are high-level True Immortals so weak?” Chen Feng said, the Chaos Chain swirling around to seal up their surrounding s.p.a.ce, sealing up all escape paths for Xue Luosha.

“You!” Xue Luosha glared furiously at Chen Feng.

“I do not like killing women, but that does not mean I will not. Now, you have no more chances.” The Chaos Chain around them began retracting, to shrink down the area around them. At the same time, a mote of starlight appeared on Chen Feng's palm. It was the pseudo-Divine artifact, the Bedazzling Star Map.

At that very moment, Xue Luosha could sense a strong killing intent. Moreover, there was also the power of the pseudo-Divine artifact. She knew then that not even resorting to her secret techniques would allow her to fight this opponent. And even if she did succeed in escaping, it would greatly exhaust her. It would not be worth the losses incurred.

“I agree to your terms!” Xue Luosha shouted.

After Xue Luosha said that, Chen Feng stopped his actions.

“Two pseudo-Divine artifacts. Spit them out.” Chen Feng chuckled.

Xue Luosha waved her hand and a mote of light flew towards Chen Feng. Catching it, Chen Feng then sensed a fiery feeling rising from it. Rather, it was capable of giving him a burning sensation of pain.

“This is…” Chen Feng regarded the three-inch-long needle on his palm with a look of curiosity.

“The Divine Sun Needle.” There was a look of unwillingness on Xue Luosha's face.

“So, it is a divine needle forged using the power of the sun. It contains Heavenly laws and the grand dao of extreme yang. A Heavenly Immortal must have forged this. Not bad. Its offensive power is very high.” Chen Feng then put the Divine Sun Needle into the Longevity Tower.

Boom!

Upon entering the Longevity Tower, the Divine Sun Needle became like an exploding star, unleas.h.i.+ng its full power before swiftly falling still. The Longevity Tower had utterly suppressed it and it stayed still like an ordinary steel needle.

“Tsk, tsk. You actually possess something so good on you. Why didn't you use it earlier?” Chen Feng asked curiously.

Hearing that, Xue Luosha felt herself on the brink of puking blood. If she had been able to use it, she would have done so long ago.

Thinking how she had to give up the pseudo-Divine artifact just like this caused Xue Luosha's heart to bleed.

“One more.” As Chen Feng was very satisfied with the Divine Sun Needle, his voice took on a gentler tone.

“I only have that other pseudo-Divine artifact.” Xue Luosha shook her head.

Chen Feng's face immediately turned frosty. “Are you kidding me right now?”

“No. Don't misunderstand! I really only have that pseudo-Divine artifact on me right now!” Xue Luosha hastily said.

“Fine. If so, bring out something of equivalent value and I will leave immediately,” Chen Feng said. The battle lance he s.n.a.t.c.hed from her was loot from their fight. It was not included as part of the two pseudo-Divine artifacts she had to give him.

An aggrieved look appeared on Xue Luosha's face. Never before did she have to face such a treatment. Even back when she was facing the siege from the cultivators, she had not felt this urge of puke out blood.

“I don't have any.”

“Then I will have to kill you.” Chen Feng revealed a derisive grin.

“Even if you kill me, there still wouldn't be any. However, I can make a deal with you,” Xue Luosha suddenly said.

“I am not interested in a trade,” Chen Feng said, hints of killing intent rising out from him.

“Aren't you curious as to why so many people are after me?”

“Nope.”

Xue Luosha felt her hatred for Chen Feng shooting up to the max. And yet, she dared not offend him further.

“The treasure h.o.a.rd of a Heavenly Immortal! I am offering the treasure h.o.a.rd of a Heavenly Immortal for a partners.h.i.+p with you,” Xue Luosha said with a smile.

“The treasure h.o.a.rd of a Heavenly Immortal. That sounds too abstract.” Chen Feng shook his head.

“What if I tell you there are Longevity Fruits amongst the treasures?” Xue Luosha said, looking at Chen Feng as she did.

“Longevity Fruits? What about it?” Chen Feng scoffed. He possessed the Longevity Wood. By producing branches, it would be able to bear fruits as well.

“What if they contain longevity essence worth between hundreds of thousands of years to millions of years?”

Finally, Chen Feng's face flickered.

“Deal, take me there immediately.” 

“You have to return my battle lance to me.” Xue Luosha secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Not a problem.” Chen Feng waved and the battle lance returned to Xue Luosha.

“Tell me the specific details. If I find out that you are lying to me, I will kill you on the spot.” If those had been any other spiritual fruits, they would not have moved Chen Feng. Not even Domain Fruits or Yin Yang Fruits. However, it was a different story with the Longevity Fruits. Chen Feng was a member of the Longevity Clan who cultivated the Longevity Scripture. Thus, the essence and energy within the Longevity Fruits were the best for quickly increasing Chen Feng's cultivation base.

“Its very simple. The reason why there are people after me is because I have gained control of a key to open up the treasure h.o.a.rd belonging to a Heavenly Immortal.”

“How can you be certain that there are Longevity Fruits inside?”

“Because the cultivator who left the treasure h.o.a.rd behind has some connections with your Longevity Clan.”

“That's good enough for me.”

“Before that, I have to recuperate. Also, from now on, we are partners. The key to unlock the treasure h.o.a.rd is in my sea of wisdom. If I die, things will get very troublesome.” After saying that, Xue Luosha then moved to a side and began healing herself, not worried that Chen Feng might try anything sneaky.

Smiling, Chen Feng then casually found a place to wait silently.

Unexpectedly, the wait would last for one year. Xue Luosha had completely immersed herself in a state of recovery and cultivation.

Due to his boredom, Chen Feng began inspecting this place that Xue Luosha was hiding in. Upon checking it out, Chen Feng grew astounded. It was actually a spatial crevice that was hidden within this dimension. Only, there were some differences between this one and the one he had encountered in the past.

The previous spatial crevice I encountered had sprayed out some treasures before disappearing. This one is being used as a hiding spot. It is likely also an empty sh.e.l.l.

Still, I can inspect it and see how this spatial crevice came to be. Chen Feng then ventured deeper into the spatial crevice.

After Chen Feng disappeared, Xue Luosha's eyes, which had been closed shut, glinted with light.

Hopefully, he dies inside it.

…

It is said that spatial crevices are likely the altered form of the bodily worlds left behind by high-level cultivators who had died. They could also be the altered form of magic treasures. Some claim that they are connected to some mysterious places. Cause and effect. Something as mysterious as this would not simply appear out of thin air. Chen Feng did not advance quickly. His eyes shone with light and nothing could escape his gaze. 

As Chen Feng had already cultivated out the Divine Eyes of Heavenly Insight, not even the average Heavenly Immortals could match up to Chen Feng in terms of eye techniques.

The interior of this spatial crevice was very big and Chen Feng explored for a long time before coming to a halt.

There really is something in here. Chen Feng chuckled, bringing out a low-grade Immortal artifact and tossing it forward.

Before him was what appeared to be empty s.p.a.ce. However, the low-grade Immortal artifact suddenly disappeared as it was still flying through the air. Even the threads that Chen Feng used to pull it had been severed.

One can only succeed after overcoming hards.h.i.+ps and dangers. Xue Luosha must already know about this place, but she did not stop me. First, it could be because there is nothing inside. Second, there are dangers inside.

From the looks of it, it's the latter. After pondering for a moment, Chen Feng then slowly stepped forward.

He swiftly disappeared into thin air.

Humph! He really went in. When Chen Feng disappeared, Xue Luosha, who was cultivating herself, opened her eyes. After thinking for a moment, she closed her eyes again.

The killing arrays inside are something that not even the average True Immortal could handle. Back then, I had nearly died inside. If this fellow from the Longevity Clan can make it out, I can consider partnering up with him for real. 

So, there is a killing array here. Chen Feng's figure hovered in the air. It looked as though he was hovering in outer s.p.a.ce. Only, he would occasionally move his feet, seemingly doing so to evade something.

A killing array would not appear here for no reason. There must surely be other items here. The stronger the killing array, the more important the item it is protecting must be.

Perhaps, this place itself is also a treasure h.o.a.rd of a Heavenly Immortal.

Chen Feng's eyes had taken a completely different colour and various spiritual lights were constantly circulating within them. He was able to see through all the obstructions, illusions and magic arrays.

Highly unpredictable and formidable, a killing array that could kill even a True Immortal was clearly reflected upon Chen Feng's eyes.

His feet moved, seemingly evading attacks coming from his surroundings. In truth, he was advancing.

It did not take long before Chen Feng stepped into a new layer of s.p.a.ce. The feeling of seemingly stepping on solid ground beneath his feet seemed to be a verification of Chen Feng's guess.

This must be a bodily world that has yet to dissipate away.

The s.p.a.ce was not that large and Chen Feng could easily see every part of it with one sweep of his eyes. However, it was completely empty. Chen Feng could tell, though, that this place used to hold some items.

That woman must have taken it away, Chen Feng thought.

Continuing forward, Chen Feng made his way through a spatial barrier and entered a new killing array.

Hu!

A formidable power rushed forward, causing Chen Feng's clothes to flutter. In response, Chen Feng swiftly evaded, but a shallow cut actually appeared on his face.

The power of this killing array is even stronger. Additionally, it is more comprehensive. It will be harder to find the flaws. Chen Feng's eyes had seemingly become a pair of suns, emitting an intense gaze that kept sweeping around. At the same time, his feet kept moving and he left one after-image after another within this chaotic s.p.a.ce. Following that, the killing array shredded his after-images into pieces.

Note: The word 'sun' in Chinese is '太陽', pinyin: 'tài yáng', also directly translated as 'extreme yang'.
